EQW, DAPA, EQW/DAPA, DAPA/MET ER and PHEN/TPM ER in Obese Women With PolycysticOvary Syndrome (PCOS)

Summary

This is a randomized, single-blind, parallel 5 treatment group 24-week trial designed to directly compare the therapeutic effects of exenatide once weekly (EQW), dapagliflozin (DAPA), EQW plus DAPA, combined DAPA/metformin extended release (XR) and the weight loss medication, phentermine/topiramate extended release (PHEN/TPM ER) on metabolic and endocrinological parameters in overweight/obese non-diabetic women with PCOS. In this study, we will examine the efficacy of these therapies on metabolic parameters, body weight and body composition, anthropometric measurements, and reproductive function in a well-defined group of pre-menopausal overweight/obese, non-diabetic women with PCOS, focusing on their relationship to insulin resistance and obesity. We hope to determine which treatment(s) addressing the multifaceted disturbances of individual subgroups emerge as the preferable therapy.
